Best answer

1. We are using wash powder to remove strong stains on the clothes. 

2. The detergent molecules have two sides, one side “water-loving” , other “water- hating ".

3. Water hating goes and joins with dirt and oil in the cloth while the water-loving joins with the water molecules. 

4. When you agitate the cloth the dirt is surrounded by many molecules and is taken away from the cloth. 

5. The cloth becomes clean, and the dirt surrounded by the detergent molecules float in the water making it dirty.
